Manufacturing

United Doormakers understands the importance of re-investing in the business to ensure continued growth. Investment focus continues to be in new, state of the art plant and equipment and in its people.

Specialised Equipment

We are proud of the cutting edge computer driven machines which allow us to produce consistently high quality products, quickly and efficiently. We specialise in supplying doors, pre-hung in their timber or metal frames, with hardware fitted. Site installers are only required to bolt the units into the wall openings providing time savings on site for the builder.

Qualified Technicians

We have a strong culture of cross-training and re-training to ensure that all our technicians are skilled in a broad range of operations. Their knowledge, experience and this continuous improvement returns consistent superior quality workmanship to guarantee a perfect product.

International Test Standards

United Doormakers takes pride in the rigorous and independent testing of its products. Of particular importance is the testing of our fire rated products. All certification is issued by independent test laboratories to comply with the stringent tests according to various domestic and international standards. With such rigorous testing you can be assured of the safety of our door sets.
